Why Missions Matters

August 6, 2017 • Pastor Jack Schull

In Acts 1:8 Jesus gives some of his final words to his followers before returning to Heaven. It's this challenge to be his witnesses "here, there and to the ends of the earth" - the direction was of primary importance: Beginning from where you are at this moment, take the message of Christ outward, like ripples caused by a pebble thrown into a pond. You could say it this way: "personal reach, local reach and global reach"

Why Prayer Matters

September 10, 2017 • Pastor Jack Schull

Tonight we want to talk about WHY Prayer Matters?! What's the intent of prayer and how can making it a pattern in your life actually refuel your soul? Prayer is one of the most common phenomena of human life. Prayer was vitally important to Jesus – he modeled it well and often, because for Jesus it wasn’t just a PRIORITY, it was a NECESSITY. Truth: Prayer is a learned behavior and nobody is born an expert at it and prayer is a habit that matters.

Why Sabbath Matters

September 3, 2017 • Pastor Jack Schull

The practice of Sabbath is remembering that we are not what we produce. We are valued because of WHOSE we are, not what we do. We are a human BEING, not a human http://doing.the rhythm of SABBATH matters to our physical, mental, emotional well-being and ultimately to our spiritual growth and maturity.

Why Worship Matters

August 20, 2017 • Pastor Jack Schull & Panel

As we dive into looking at why worship matters - we wanted to expand our scope and our voice tonight. So we've got a panel of Elements partners who help us examine the role, benefits and our understanding of worship and why it should be a rhythm in our life. Here's a quick definition: "Worship is our response to the revelation of who God is." And it's way more than a song.
